On behalf of the nearly 2,000 young Latinos served in 2012, CHCI wishes you and your familia a Happy New Year!

As we close this year’s 35th anniversary of developing the next generation of Latino leaders® and we prepare to welcome the largest group of Hispanic members of Congress, CHCI celebrates the record-breaking number of young Latinos that we served in 2012.

As we begin 2013, the demand for our transformational programs continues to increase. To help us continue to make a difference in the lives of young Latinos and fulfill our mission, we ask that you consider a year-end gift to CHCI. In particular, we’d like to make you aware that CHCI can accept non-cash contributions in the form of gifts of stock.

When donated in the correct way, a gift of stock to CHCI is tax deductible as with any other gifts to a 501 (c)(3) and offers several distinct benefits. You can:

Reduce or avoid capital gains tax

Deduct the full market value of the stock (not just your original cost)

Take advantage of this great benefit now. Coming tax law changes may limit the tax benefits of making a gift of appreciated stock in 2013 and beyond

Making a gift of stock is easy and quick. Give us a call at 202-548-8790 or email smaldonado@chci.org – we are here to help. Remember, you can make your gift up to December 31 and take a full year charitable income tax deduction!
